Tomorrow is going to be a difficult day
Edited on Sat Aug-29-09 08:05 PM by doc03
I am going to a concealed carry class and I am sure it is going to be packed with right wingers. I know I will hear some asshole make a remark about Ted Kennedy's death. The guy that runs the class is a teabagger. I don't know if I can hold my temper with these assholes for 12 hours. It's going to be a real test when we go to the firing range, you may hear of a guy flipping out and shooting an entire CC class.

9. I signed up and paid for it weeks ago, who was to know
Ted Kennedy would pass away and we would have all this town hall BS. It would be difficult to hold my tongue under normal circumstances now it is going to really hard. Why did I sign up? I have a
Constitutional right to keep and bear arms I shouldn't need to explain that.

5. Don't worry, there are many in those classes I took one and the only problem that I had with some
Edited on Sat Aug-29-09 08:10 PM by AuntPatsy
others was with their ignorance on what being able to legally carry meant to one and how dangerous that could be as well...I can't believe some of them now own and can legally use such a powerful and deadly weapon..........

13. Two words for the 'holes: "Stay Classy!"
Look at tomorrow as a test of responsible gun ownership and handling. And let them know that there is at least ONE adult in the place.

Good luck!

14. Just Go In Singin This Song...
Happiness Is A Warm Gun

She's not a girl who misses much
Do do do do do do, oh yeah
She's well acquainted with the touch of the velvet hand
Like a lizard on a window pane

The man in the crowd with the multicoloured mirrors
On his hobnail boots
Lying with his eyes while his hands are busy
Working overtime
A soap impression of his wife which he ate
And donated to the National Trust

I need a fix 'cause I'm going down
Down to the bits that I left uptown
I need a fix cause I'm going down
Mother Superior jump the gun
Mother Superior jump the gun
Mother Superior jump the gun
Mother Superior jump the gun
Mother Superior jump the gun
Mother Superior jump the gun

Happiness (is a warm gun)
Bang Bang Shoot Shoot
Happiness (is a warm gun, momma)
Bang Bang Shoot Shoot

When I hold you in my arms
Oooooooooh, oh yeah!

And when I feel my finger on your trigger
Oooooooooh, oh yeah!

I know nobody can do me no harm
Oooooooooh, oh yeah!

Happiness (is a warm gun, momma)
Bang Bang Shoot Shoot

Happiness (is a warm gun)
Bang Bang Shoot Shoot

Yes it is, gun!
Happiness (is a warm gun)
Bang Bang Shoot Shoot

Happiness (is a warm gun)
is a warm gun, yeeeaahhh!

Enjoy!

15. How about this: This is a 44 Magnum punk, it's the most powerful
handgun in the world, it can blow your head clean off. Do you feel lucky punk! Well it's not the most powerful anymore but it still sounds cool.

18. Dude. If it wasn't Ted Kennedy, it would be our beloved President.
So, in retrospect, it won't be as bad as it would have been, had not the end come at this time for Mr. Kennedy.
Just laugh and joke about it. Keep a sense of humor about it. And give it back to them with a smile.
I went thru' the same thing at the range.
One of the a**h****s commenting about 'takin' my guns away' and who he was shooting at at the target.
Well, I gave it back to one of his sacred cows, laughing as I did, only threw in all kinds of additional slanders, slurs, innuendos, and sexual and other insults about what I was shooting.
Shut 'em up real fast.
